Great food and guide - Great tour and guide. Viator should allow users to just give stars rather than force a written review!

Foodie paradise in Marbella - Amazing experience with a great guide! We learned about the history of the area along with food and wine at each location. One of my favorite tapas was the ensalada rusa.

An Unforgettable Evening - 3 hours of fabulous tapas & wine, sprinkled with culinary and cultural tidbits by our wonderful guide Michel, and great company made for an unforgettable evening. We loved it so much that we all stayed for another drink after the tour had ended! Tour highly recommended also for vegetarians and pescatarians.

Tapas in the best places - Really great for a not-too-crazy team building event if you know what I mean, a chance to see a lot of Marbella's different restaurants and local foods in great locations, would happily do again.

Eating Your Way Through Marbella - We had a great food walking tour with Manuel. We’ve been to Marbella before but he showed us some hidden spots we’d missed. We sampled some yummy tastes at three different restaurants. At La Santa, we had verdejo wine, Spanish potato tortilla, meatballs, paella, then to El Borquern for goat cheese, ham, and tuna with almonds, and then ended at Casa Carro Tabernera for fried fish, calamari, and dog fish balls. He gave us a lot of history of the area plus gave us some of his own history which was interesting too. Manuel’s pace was good and we really enjoyed the vibe of the whole evening. We’d recommend this tour to anyone!
